Contemporary Italian Grand Scale Paolo Venini Inciso Murano Glass Vase, Striking Sculptural Silhouette Neck Teardrop Vase, Etch Signed 14 Inch Mid-Century Taupe Art Glass Bottle, Circa 1950
Art Glass / CrystalA monumental piece of mid-century Italian art glass represents an extraordinary example of premium modernist design, masterfully created by the legendary Paolo Venini for Venini & C. in Murano, Italy during the 1950s. Standing at an impressive height of exactly 14 inches, this authentic vintage bottle-form vase features an elegant teardrop body that tapers gracefully into an elongated, slender neck.
The piece features definitive collector verification with the authentic manufacturer’s signature clearly etched directly onto the base, ensuring its provenance and historical value. The entire exterior surface of this 14-inch vessel is meticulously finished with Venini’s signature inciso technique, showcasing countless micro-fine, hand-cut horizontal engravings that impart a luxurious matte-satiny texture and a softly diffused, frosted appearance. Hand-blown in Venice, Italy, during the height of the mid-20th century glass movement, the vase is crafted from a sophisticated, translucent taupe-gray glass and terminates in a heavy, flat-polished base.
The grand scale and striking sculptural silhouette allow this piece to effortlessly serve as a commanding focal point in any mid-century modern, minimalist, or high-end contemporary collection. A modernist designer’s dream come true.
